quart(5)
; Tabs are required for indentation (<C-q tab> in emacs)
# NAME
quart - document format for *quart*(1) schedules
# SYNTAX
*quart* files are inspired by emacs' org-mode. The header contains the time
that the schedule begins and each line represents a quarter of time, or 15
minures.
## HEADER
Before any task, every *quart* file must contain a header with the starting
time of the schedule. It looks like this:
```
#+START: 9:15
```
It is case insenstive.
## COMMENTS
Every line beginning with `#` is ignored. Comments must start at the beginning
of the line.
## BODY
The body of the document contains the tasks. Each task is a line starting with `\* `
(asterisk and space). The full definition of a task looks like this:
\* [_REPETITION_] [_FLAG_] <*DESCRIPTION*>
_FLAG_ and _REPETION_ are optional. See the respective sections below.
The description can be any arbitrary string.
## FLAGS
Each task can have a _flag_ set to make it pop out. There are three flags avaliable:
|- *Char*
:] *Flag*
:[ *Description*
|- \!
: _Urgent_
:[ Mark task as important.
|- ?
: _Maybe_
:[ Mark task as mayhap.
|- @
: _Depends_
:[ Task that depends on someone else.
Use them by adding the required _char_ after the `\* ` in a task:
```
#+start: 9:30
\* ! Meet with Knuth.
```
If used with _repetition_ it must go *after* it.
## REPETITION
Allows repetition of a task for as many quarters as needed in succession.
Use them by adding a number right after the `\* ` in a task:
```
#+start: 11:30
* 8 Boring 2h meeting.
```
If used with _flags_ it must go *before* any.
## SPECIAL
There are two special symbols the _DESCRIPTION_ can contain:
*=*
Repeat the previous task. It will only carry over the description
so it can contain a different _flag_ or _repetition_ number.
*-*
None, blank, empty, the most important thing. 15 minutes of doing nothing.
